Languedoc-Roussillon, Gard, Foissac, France

Tastefully restored farmhouse close to Uzes.

This elegant farmhouse, dating from 1824, has been tastefully restored over time, and a subtle blend of period materials and modern atmosphere lend it an undeniably imposing quality.

Situated a short drive from Uzès on the outskirts of a traditional village, the property enjoys an enviable setting and has a delightful view of the countryside.

The house, a former castle outbuilding, stands amid impressive, mature greenery watched over by a majestic century-old oak tree.

Inside are approximately 250 sq m of liveable floorspace distributed over two levels.

The ground floor presents dual-aspect living areas extending on to big terraces for the enjoyment of the outdoor spaces. A kitchen opens into a 40-sq m-plus dining room, a lounge to the south (also 40 sq m in size) and a second, more intimate lounge with a fireplace. This level contains a bedroom and a shower room.

Upstairs are three bedrooms (including a main suite) and a games room. The first floor provides access to a large terrace under the shade of an oak tree, with a magnificent sunset view.

The garden is level and is arranged to make the most of every space. A 16 x 6 metre swimming pool is its cooling oasis.

A 36 sq m outbuilding could be converted into a guest studio.
